INT Valve?

[Dan Higgins]

Hi all,
I got a response from a shop in Greece about a request for equipment. They state that they have both DIN and INT valves on their tanks. What is an INT?
Thanks,
Dan

Just had some people from Holland asking the same thing so I hope someone can answer this.

I would guess it's International, some people refer to the standard Yoke valve as international since it is most common in resort locations.

The yoke valve has been called 'International' for at least 40 years. The DIN spec is a German valve design and was not compatible with those systems in other countries which use/used yoke or V clamp arrangements. Since the yoke was used in virtually all other countries it was referred to as INT or international.

I would guess it's International, some people refer to the standard Yoke valve as international since it is most common in resort locations.
